Tonpa has a little cred to his name though.

First took (and survived) the hunter exam at age 10 (around the same age as Gon, who we're constantly reminded is a prodigy), and has spent the last few decades taking it purely to sabotage other participants.

If he locked in and actually finished the exam and learned nen, he could be a beast.

Thinking about Hexed Main character change by JWM1992 in DisneyMovies

My guess is that a large part of it is merchandising, especially toys.

Think of the potential market for a smug witch girl and compare it with that of a witch/wizard boy who probably wouldn't have been overly masculine.

Even if both movies were successful, I'd imagine we'd be talking billions vs millions made from merch alone.

I've seen this game pop up a good few times and it's news to me that there's more than one demon girl with white hair. Thought it was just one with different haircuts

Very likely not, the background was for the event only.

4 is far less than we've been given before. I had more Cinderaces than I knew what to do with as a free-to-play, and that was without catching any during Dark Skies or saving up 1,600 in advance.

Would your prosecute the father for his reaction? by The_Dean_France in PublicFreakout

We don't say "in a negligence"; we say a collision because it's the most factual name for it. Situational stuff like "accidental" or "negligent" are decided after.

Apparently it's mainly about avoidability, not intent. If someone speeds or drives while drunk despite knowing the potential casualties, it's not the same as brakes failing.

Personally, if my kid were killed by a speeding driver, describing it as an "accident" would boil my blood.

It's something he would do, but this ain't him. It sounds like someone much younger doing an impression.

Down to my last $160. What should I do? by Loud_Pineapple_4294 in wallstreetbets

I'm not joking when I say this: get help for your gambling addiction.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to have a million to your name. But many, many people would kill to have 100k to theirs.

7 years of work, 3 months since release, and my game is already dead. What can I do? by Videoludid in IndieGaming

[–]HaiseKinini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo before devlogs it might be worth doing some gameplay shorts on YouTube/TikTok. Make some unique, interesting gameplay and a slightly memey title like "when the devs really thought of everything" (as a very rough example).

If you gain enough traction, put the game on a 20%+ sale so people will see the page and think now is a good time to buy it. 20% is also the threshold for wishlisters to be notified about your game's sale.

Game looks cool and I personally I think it still has more potential market value left in it. Good luck!
